“It’s hard to explain just how important Tim Hortons is to Canadians – it’s not just a restaurant, it’s a way of life and a place of ‘home’, and we’re positive Great Britain will fall in love the brand.”

The first UK site will open on Argyle Street in Glasgow this May and additional locations will be announced in cities across the UK later this year.

Tim Hortons is part of quick service restaurant company, Restaurant Brands International Inc.
